A couple of months ago I tried to use Ventrilo (basically a conference-call system, for those unfamiliar) and had to set the APN to direct.telecom.co.nz before it would work. I never even considered that I might be doing something against the TOS, although in this case it's not competing with Telecom (you need to use the software, so I wasn't using it instead of Telecom's per-minute voice service).

Skype works great on the XT network, used the built in webcam of my laptop connected with the Sierra card, Good quality, voice was fine, not too much of a noticable performance difference bewtween broardband and xt network regarding skype.

Great to show off to your friends/family the snow when they're at home in Auckland (Up Mt Ruapehu earlier this year..)
